J.B. Langston updated CASSANDRA-6902:
-------------------------------------
Description: If the user specifies -u username and leaves off -p password,
cqlsh should prompt for a password without echoing it to the screen instead of
throwing an exception, which it currently does. I know that you can put a
username and password in the .cqlshrc file but if a user wants to log in with
multiple accounts and not have the password visible on the screen, there's no
way to currently do that. (was: If the user specifies -u username and leaves
off -p password, cqlsh should prompt for a password without echoing it to the
screen instead of throwing an exception, which it currently does. I know that
you can put a username and password in the .cqlshrc file but if a user wants to
log in with multiple accounts and not have the password visible on the screen,
there's no way to currently do that. This feature has been requested by a
customer.)
